So today I was cruising my local wrecker, when I spotted a nice looking e53 in the lot, it had a set of rear door window screens/shades. I asked "How much??" and was told, $75 if i pull them. I passed for now, because I am not sure how often they would be utilized, and just how useful they actually are? any thoughts?? anyone else have them? my daughter and her friends are the usual occupants of the back seat.
My OCD screams that I should get this option, as yet another in the quest for the "fully optioned X5", but my wallet suggests otherwise!
So does anyone else have these window screens, and are they useful? I'm located in the pacific north west, so scorching summer heat isnt a big issue!?
On the otherhand, I did pick up a set of mint running boards for my X today! now I am trying to figure out whether or not to have them re-anodized in a darker color grey/black?? just to be different!
ahhhhh the fun of owning a BMW!
thanx all!
